Pain
My entire existence
Is nothing but pain
Every time I start to open up
Someone else hurts me
It's been that way all my life
A series of continual pain
Why?
Why couldn't you break the chain?
At least them I could heal my wounds
Have time to build up a defense
Maybe it won't hurt as bad
But no!
You continued the cycle
As I began to open up
You sought out the soft spot in my defense
In which
At the perfect time
You would plunge the blade
And continue the series of pain
Pain
My entire existence
Is nothing but pain
